Title: PTS went to GPU???
Post by: CourtJesterG on February 18, 2014, 03:56:34 pm
When reading the website, it said that PTS wouldn't use GPU or anything else besides CPU to mine with? Why am I seeing GPU miners? Really after for the first time using a CPU to mine with, it kinda seems faster than my GPU.

yes. GPU mining is faster than cpu for about 4 weeks. but still not worth for mining PTS by using GPU. My GPU get 10-20% more for mining alt-coin

Depending on the CPU, something like a Radeon 7950/280x is only 1.5-2.5x faster...  For this reason, along with many others, we should be promoting PTS.

GPU mining is good for promoting pts, and it wouldn't phase out CPU mining, because the speed of GPU is still comparable to CPU.
